Over half of Americans now lack confidence in the U.S. banking system, and more than ever are worried about losing the money they have in the bank.
A new Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey finds that 46% of American Adults are at least somewhat confident in the stability of the U.S. banking industry, but 52% are not. This includes 11% who are Very Confident and 12% who are Not At All Confident. (To see survey question wording, click here.)
